| HOLLINGWOOD, LANCASHIRE. February, 1922. Ref: D.A.R / Date: 21.2.22 Dear Sir, for the attention of Mr. Hives. Further to my recent visit when I discussed with you the side members retaining and separate fittings, and have checked over, and the last Octobers which I have found to be correct. I have sent these together with the back dated Octobers for front-joint and believe it to be possible that you can fit these, I shall be glad if you will let us have one of your sets as they are defective in actual service. This is in order to enable us to get a more complete test. If you will send the fittings for these to us at once we can give you a pretty quick decision. Also if there is any other one that you would like us to check we shall be very glad to do this. Yours truly, [Signature] AXLE STUDY? [Stamp: RECEIVED 22 FEB 1922] | ||
